Legendary day for sharks and Mantas.

Today, we are following up on our week, and the petition dedicated to shark and manta protection. For our marine biologists small petition we have collected
470 signatures from nationals of 54 countries, and we sent it out to delegates
from 50 countries which participated in CITES CoP 2013.

Needless to say our
small initiative was just a drop in the ocean compared to all the hard work
that NGO’s like ProjectAWARE and MantaTrust have put in to achieve this big
goal. Even more important are the countless voices of environmentally aware
people around the world, who spoke for the control of elasmobranch trade.
